Christmas gift ideas for golfers
1 - Golf neck warmers and golf bobble hats
As soon as the air starts to turn a little colder, it can be easy to catch a chill on the golf course, especially if you aren’t wearing the appropriate golf headwear. But while plenty of golfers remember to stack up with extra layers, coats and hats, there’s one part of the anatomy that is often missed - the neck.
Unless you’re wearing a scarf, the frosty wind could find its way around your neck and make you feel like a living icicle, even if you’re wearing warm clothing elsewhere. But scarves can get in the way when we’re trying to swing, which is why neck warmers come in handy.
They’re a light yet incredibly effective tool to use against the winter chill. With thermal insulation properties, they wrap around the neck of any golfer and help keep them warm without dangling or interfering in other aspects of their game as a scarf would do. A simple yet practical gift for the winter golfer. Speaking of winter golf gear…
They might look a little silly - and that’s definitely the intention - but no winter golfer is complete without their trusty golf bobble hat.
Nobody truly knows when, why or how golf bobble hats became so popular - after all, they’d fulfil the same function without the bobble on top - but they’ve become a staple on courses around the world in the final and opening months of the calendar.
The majority of heat lost from the human body leaves through our head, which is why keeping your head warm on the golf course is essential if you want to enjoy a game and perform at your sharpest, without being disturbed by low temperatures.
Crafted from a warming, knitted material - some with water-wicking properties - you can trust a multi-layered hat to keep your head toasty and dry in the winter months. A great way to add a little visual flare to your winter golf wardrobe.
2 - Golf balls
Steering away from the winter game, if you want the golfer in your life to play the best game possible, it helps if they have some top-quality tools to help get the job done. That includes the best quality golf balls, and they don’t get any better than the Titleist Pro V1 golf balls.
A regular feature in the golf bags of enthusiasts and professionals alike, the Titleist Pro V1 is recognised as the premier golf ball in the game.
With dual-core technology, players can expect to enjoy exceptional trajectory, increased distance and reduced backspin for a reliable and consistent strike.
Though, they’re a little on the pricey side and aren’t suited for beginners. So, if you’re looking for stocking filler for the experienced golfer, this will do the trick.
3 - Golf watch
There are few sports that haven't enjoyed some important advancements as a result of improved technology over the years - and golf is no different.
From clubs crafted with the aid of computer analysis to accurate and consistent distance measuring, new technology has helped elevate the game of golfers everywhere. One such tool many golfers have taken advantage of is golf GPS watches.
Not dissimilar to smartwatches or fitness trackers people wear day-to-day, golf GPS watches provide golfers with a plethora of important info that can help them make an educated decision about their next shot, on every shot.
Many of them come pre-packaged with data on thousands of golf courses worldwide, meaning those of you who enjoy a golfing holiday to new climates will be served well and will be able to traverse your new course with ease.
4 - Golf gloves
A classic piece of golf apparel you’ll find in the bag of virtually every player, quality golf gloves have been a staple of the game for almost as long as the game has been around.
They offer players a more effective grip, allowing them to maintain better control over their shots and generate awesome power and swing speed without sacrificing accuracy.
Plus, because they’re so regularly used and endure a lot of friction, they need replacing pretty often, making them an ideal gift to grab for any golfer if they’ve been using the same glove for a while. An easy yet welcome golf stocking filler!
